Mitra Hotel, Ptuj

The international project ArtACT (Art Activism in post-COVID Europe: A new agenda on methodology, artistic practices and stakeholder relations) explores how literature and art can change the world for the better and what their concrete effects can have on our engagement in the world. The project aims to show that through the arts we can influence social change through activism.

ArtAct was rounded off with a film documentary (Russalka, 2024) and a book publication of the results of the research on artistic activism. The film features a detailed presentation of the Open Letter to Europe 2023, written by British poet, novelist and screenwriter David Harsent.
